I was ready too and then I went through and changed all of my

{$mode objfpc}

to

{$mode delphi}

Now it doesn't compile. It pops up with all sorts of errors. Some related to mismatched types when dealing with strings and some when dealing with pointers of strings such as @Value+1.

What do you think should I just put it back to

{$mode objfpc}

I only had to hand edit a few of the changes against what I had already done.

hello,

It seems to me that the objpas and self problem are related. I removed the objpas everywhere. Instead it should say everywhere

{$mode delphi}

and the objpas should be REMOVED from the uses clause. (I didn't add the {$Mode delphi}, instead I used
'make OPT=-S2')

Note that this is true in general: objpas must be loaded implicitly by the -S2 or -Sd switch (the {$mode delphi}).

it should NEVER be loaded explicitly. This used to be different, but now this is strictly against the rules.

I cannot test the self problem because the app doesn't link on my NT. Once I get to a linux box, I may be able to test.

So, once more: do a
cvs update
before committing anything !!

I'm going to add the {$mode Delphi} if you don't mind because I hate using OPT=-S2. The reason is unless it tells you in the code you don't know you were suppose to set it and when it doesn't compile correctly you don't have a clue as to why.

As the Self problem I'm not sure what is going on. I modified the TApplication so that it is GUI independent and it also has the CreateForm method. To get this to work I needed to use Self and I also needed to move LoadMainMenu to be called in the TForm1.Create method. When I moved it their I had to remove the implicit TForm1.{whatever} references since TForm1 wasn't set yet. Therefor it needed to use Self and it works fine. I have managed to compile and run lazarus in this manner.

I am going to make a few more changes this morning and will then commit what I have done for everyone to look at.

So, once more: do a cvs update before committing anything !!

I made a WHOLE lot of changes last night and this morning but I'll update and check out your stuff before committing.

Please do this ASAP. for me it is evening :)

CVS should merge the changes seamlessly. In theory :-)
